Public MCH-FP service provision in Bangladesh has a number of
distinguishing features. The pattern of service utilization is lopsided with
low utilization of most facilities at the community level (upazila and
below), and over utilization at the district and at teaching hospitals. The
major reason for low utilization of primary level facilities is the poor
service quality and negative perception of the community about the types
of services available.

including rising costs, aging infrastructure, increasingly stringent regulatory
requirements, population changes, and a rapidly changing workforce. Effective utility
management can help utilities respond to both current and future challenges and

Forests are an integral part of global sustainable development. The World Bank
estimates more than 1.6 billion people to be dependent on forests for their livelihoods
with some 300 million living in them. The forest product industry is a source of
economic growth and employment, with global forest products traded internationally
is estimated at $327 billion. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) estimates
that every year 130,000 km² of the world's forests are lost due to deforestation.

General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)
Packet data transmission has already been standardized in GSM phase 2, offering access to the Packet Switched Public Data Network (PSPDN); see Sections 9.5.3 and 9.6.2. However, on the air interface such access occupies a complete circuit switched traf®c channel for the entire call period. In case of bursty traf®c (e.g. Internet traf®c), such access leads to a highly inef®cient resource utilization. It is obvious that in this case, packet switched bearer services result in a much better utilization of the traf®c channels.

Integrating reproductive health, family planning and STI/HIV prevention and treatment services is
critical for achieving universal access. Integration requires that health care workers can provide
an appropriate comprehensive package of services under one roof, and refer patients to other
services if required. Linking STI/HIV with SRH services improves access to HIV/STI services for
women who might otherwise not visit them because of issues of stigma [1].

wastewater services are provided to residents, businesses, industries, and other customers within a
community. Water and wastewater employees work in utility operations and administrative support
areas.
